How to reorder extension buttons?

I can't seem to work out how to reorder the extension buttons. I can't drag them around, not even while customizing toolbars. It seems the button order is set in stone, and the order seems to be the order in which extensions happen to have been installed.

On the "Manage extensions" window, the extensions are listed in alphabetical order. Which is a different order. No way to reorder them from there, either.

How do I change the order of these extension buttons?

On a sidenote: I cannot find any of the extension button in the Customize dialog on the Buttons tab.

As a side note, take care with Ghostery.... was troubleshooting with someone else here yesterday over certain pages not loading and it was that plugin which turned out to be the cause

Not really. It's usually the site that refuses to load any further until a certain social element has been loaded. Very, very bad practice (because such an element might simply be offline, or returning errors, or what have you). But yes, offtopic

Hopefully user control over extension sort order will be forthcoming VERY soon. It's rather bad design to just dump stuff in the order in which it arrived when that "order" is not based on anything other than 'first come first served'. That's sorta like a library where the books are just sorta thrown on the shelf in the order in which they arrive while not allowing anyone to organize them.

I realise this is an old thread, but I was searching for an answer for this, and found this thread, but also found a way to re-order them! Involves digging around a little code, so if your not confident doing that, make sure you save a copy of the Preferences file somewhere before you mess with it.

Hey, you guys this forum is ancient but I'm sure that someone will come across it again like I did just minutes ago.
The work around solution is really, really easy. Just go into your extension manager and disable all of your extensions.
Next, enable them in the order that you want the buttons to show up.
From here you can delete and add back in the order that you like.
